Sort of; it's true as stated, but remember that any measured force may be the resultant of two or more initial forces.

But the end result is identical to two equal & opposing forces.

According to newtons third law forces always occur in what pairs?

equal but opposite


What law says that forces always come in pairs?

Newton's Third law of motion. This stated that with every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This proves that with one force, an equal and opposite counter-force will always also exist, thus proving that forces are always present in pairs.


Do forces act in equal and opposite pairs?

yes


How are force pairs related by Newton third law of motion?

The forces are always equal in size and opposite in direction.


Forces always occur in equal but opposite what?

Forces always occur in equal and opposite directions, under Equilibrium Conditions.


When do action and reaction pairs of forces cancel each other and when do they not?

Well, Professor Newton has taught that the reaction is always equal and opposite to the action, and we know that equal and opposite forces cancel each other. So it seems that the answer to the question must be: They always do.


What do forces always occur in?

In pairs. Newton's third law.


Action reaction force pairs act on what?

All Forces! For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction."The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs"


What are forces that always act in equal but opposite pairs?

If the equal and opposite forces are separated by a certain distance they are called as couple. If the equal and opposite forces are not seperated by a certain distance their resultant is zero as per Parallelogram Law of Vector Addition.


Do force act in pairs?

Yes Forces always act in pairs and never alone!!!!!!Newtons 3rd law clearly states that for every action there is an equal but opposite reactin!!!!


What best describes Newton's third law of motion?

All forces act in pairs of equal and opposite forces....


What is an example of equal and opposite force pairs?

Opposite Forces: An example is of tug 'a war. There are two opposing forces on both sides of the rope, so it does't move.
